The ACC is simply falling to pieces. There is no emotion, or other wording that could be used to emphasize that point. That's all there is to it. Oh, wait...you're a basketball fan? In that case, it's great! The addition of Syracuse, Pitt, Louisville, and maybe UConn? It will quite easily be the best, or one of the best basketball conferences in the nation year in and year out. These teams are often playing for national titles, and are amongst the country's elite college basketball teams every year. So yeah, it's going to make for some amazing basketball, and as a fan of college basketball, I have to love that! It should be very competitive, very interesting and will put the ACC ahead of all other conferences in the sport.
Oh, you're a football fan, too? Then I guess I have to give you some insight about the bad side. It's already a weak football conference, with FSU and Clemson being pretty much the only schools with some national recognition. The SEC takes a big dump on the ACC in football, with many more talented and nationally recognized teams. The SEC is just a better football conference in every way, and is clearly the best in the land. The ACC used to compete with the SEC somewhat, and produced several ranked teams each year. But the coming years will likely bring nothing but embarrassment to the conference as far as football goes, because FSU and Clemson will continue to be the only intimidating football teams, and will continue to fall short of expectations and concede national title after national title to the SEC (slightly pessimistic, and I hope I'm wrong, but it looks that way to me). Oh well, yay for hoops!
